About Lykke Kaffegårdar:

Lykke is a friendly and passionate small business!
We live and die for our products but it is through our personality and our emotions that we get our message through the noise, so we can sell our products and try to change our industry. And it would be super sad if the fantastic work of our coffee farmers goes unnoticed if we didn’t market them properly.

Really good and durable products, which make the planet a little nicer are worth showing off through new ideas, and as Pablo Picasso once said:
"Good artist copy, great artists steal". Naturally, we borrow ideas sometimes, but we always make them our own.

To get a feel for us, surf in to our website and browse our INSTA if you want. And on the topic of our online presence, content and marketing, it's really just about letters, numbers and pictures. Add a crazy brain that combines them through different expressions to penetrate the noise. (And we have to keep an eye on the numbers as well, of course.) This is possible the most fun job in the world for the right person.

As we are now looking for our new web, content and marketing artist, you should preferably not just love to communicate in text and images flawlessly as you navigate the Adobe jungle. You should also love a little structure and orderliness. Is it even possible to combine two brain halves, the creative and the practical?

And of course we want to find the right person to work in our fun, slightly crazy gang. Chemistry is important to us.

Some more about the role:

LYKKE KAFFEGÅRDAR is looking for Sweden's most creative web, content and marketing artist.

In your role, you will work with some of the pickyist individuals in the coffee industry. All of us have worked in coffee for a long time and strive to be the best at what we do. But both you and I know we are no experts in e-commerce and marketing. That is what you will bring to the table, and we will happily be guided and do as we are told. The gang at Lykke are individualists with big egos and great integrity. Like you. They’ve always been like that and it’s perhaps not so strange considering that we decided to set up our own coffee farms around the world and start a new roastery. Who even does that? But it is everyone's stubbornness and our skills that together make us so good no matter what we all do at Lykke.
Just as we are running our areas of responsibility within Lykke, we are just as good at adjusting and stepping up when someone needs help. Regardless if they are a colleague or customer.
You will take on an important role in our creative marketing group, which for better or worse is responsible for Lykke's face to the outside world. Our brand is as important as our coffee projects. Top that off with a gold egg in 2021 and feel the burden of always delivering really good stuff that engages and touches people.

Our new marketing artist needs a bag half-packed with skills and experiences from e-commerce and perhaps a manufacturing business as we make many of our own products and packaging, but at the same time have some space for the skills you will need to develop. And the bag has to be build already and have structured compartments from previous trips.
It's fun, but can be a tough job at times as our store is never closed.

Like for example when you have a deadline for publishing a new campaign and you forgot the computer charger at home, or when you are pulling your hair because you forgot to save the latest product updates you made.

If I quickly rummage through all the parts of your job description, you will find words like artist, e-commerce, brilliant, innovative, unexpected, communicative, copy, images, ingenious, sustainability, responsibility, participation, profitability, structure, motivation, competence, sustainability again, artist again, English and Swedish in speech and writing, Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign, joy and inspiration, fearless and incredibly beautiful colleagues in a young driven gang. Did I say sustainability?

You probably have a lot of goals in life. One of them could be to help build Lykke into an even more fantastic company in all the markets and places where we are.

We want to fill the position as soon as possible if you can get out of your current boss' grip. If our wait is long, we see it as a good sign as you have probably done something good and become an important component of your current job.

It doesn’t matter where you prefer to work from. We have an office and roastery in Hökarängen, and a lovely shop at Nytorget. We promise that you can drink good coffee every day and hang out with wonderful people, not because it matters so much as you will mostly be glued to your Mac to create the next miracle. But it’s always fun to tell your buddies what wonderful people you work with.

If you have questions about the job, don’t hesitate to contact johan@lykkegardar.se We can show you a draft for the job description but think that we will create it together when we have nailed the plan.

Hope to See you soon!
